Like it or not, this is the configuration that's scheduled, at least for now. The airline has to attach
some configuration or another when they start selling a flight, which can of course change somewhere down the road, so I'm not really sure what the issue is here.
That 1-2-1 you're seeing now is a former SAS bird, with an entirely different cabin configuration (no F, and from what I hear not enough galley space in Y for longer-haul operations). It has to be captive to one rotation or another, which for now seems to be MEL.
